Kahr P380

[TxCajun]

Forgive me if this has been posted here already but I don't see it anywhere:





Basically, a miniature verson of the P-series pistols, not yet released.
And unlike the Ruger LCP3AT, this one is no copy of someone else's design.




There is a discussion here with some more info:

not even shown on kahr's website.....

 

[TxCajun]

Nope. 1st seen on ktog.

 

[gbelleh]

I like it. Is it slimmer than the PM9?

 

[TxCajun]

IIRC, the width is 3/4 inch.

I heard of this critter, but I also couldn't find it on Kahr's site.....

 

[Dan-O]

I have two Kel Tec p38t's, but I am for sure getting me one of those.

 

[lee n. field]

Interesting. .380 microguns are the latest fad.

SRP on the Kahr?

 

[Caipirinha]

It'll be a tough sell if they're charging twice as much as Ruger.

 

[Vodka7]

Thanks for the pictures--I've been hearing rumors about this gun for months, but when SHOT came and went without any new info coming out I figured it was canned or delayed.

That said, I'm inclined to agree with Caipirinha--the $550 someone mentioned on KTOG is way more than I'd spend on a pocket 380, stainless slide or not. The $350-400 others mentioned would be tempting, though...

If they made that it their affordable CW series, they might have a winner.

 

[TheReeves]

Nice to finally see it, I was worried when my LCP came in, I'd buy it and regret it once the Kahr came out. I think I'll keep the Ruger pre-order. I like the look of the Kahr though.

 

[Newton]

Doesn't look much smaller than a PM9.

I'll stick with the LCP for .380ACP.

 

[MICHAEL T]

Due to price I don't see KT loosing any sleep over it. Way to much money

 

[romma]

I would like to hear more about it! My PM is amazing.

Well TX Cajun, looks like you got yourself a scoop!

It looks smaller than my PM9, it better be otherwise a pointless effort.

 

[Rustynuts]

They're more in the Seecamp 32 range at that price. If they were in the $400 range I think people would step up and buy. Kahrs are a lot nicer guns than my KelTecs, so worth "some" extra money.

 

[usp9]

Davidsons is showing them priced at $649. I'd pass at that price.

 

[Syd]

Not to bring up matters of caliber (heh), but ...why would Kahr mess around with 380 in the first place? It's not that much smaller than their bread-and-butter 9mms. Anyone?

 

[kokapelli]

When you see it from this angle, next to the PM9 it looks tiny.

 

[StrikeFire83]

Can't wait to shoot one and compare it to Ruger's and Kel-Tec's offerings.

 

[106rr]

If Kahr gets it approved in CA they would have a good market niche. KelTec has declined to pay the extortion and I am not sure that Ruger will bother with ti either.

 

[BattleChimp Potemkin]

Kahr isnt bad, but why are they so much more expensive than other firearms of equivalent type (not exact size, but type, such as CCW pistol or similar)? I really dont seen the point to buy a much more expensive pistol when I get a slightly cheaper one. Its like buying a Korth when all you need is a glock. Dont get me wrong, I love Kahr, but I just dont get the price.

 

[cal45]

It's on the Kahr web site now. http://www.kahr.com/PA-1_380_p.html

Looks to be maybe a tad smaller than the Kel-Tec P3AT

 

[blackcash88]

And, unlike the P3AT and LCP, it will have a fully functional magazine activated slide lock as well.

and alot of other quality features also. More money, more gun IMO.
